Return Of R2

Great pity, Blue Ribbon - you've always done better than this and your budget titles have long been models of value for money software. Read Review

R2 is not a game to rave over - and it will not be a classic - but represents fair value at the price. Read Review
Full Instructions
Introduction
Space Station Zelger is running out of energy fast. You are the last hope. Using your 'R2' Droid, collect the 'Z42' compound and return it to the hidden power room. But beware! Laser bolts and radioactive barriers are some of the many dangers awaiting you.
Your aim is to guide the Robot-Droid 'R2' around the space station Zelger, in order to find and collect the three boxes containing the compound 'Z42'. Once collected, this must be taken to the power room in order to replenish the energy supply of the space station.
But beware, as you move 'R2' through the many rooms and locations on Zelger, you will encounter Lazer Bolts, Radio Active Barriers and much more to try and stop you completing your mission.
You only have 20 minutes in which to complete the mission and 'R2' has only four lives.
